The Visibility of Models: Using Technology as a Bridge between Mathematics and Engineering.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kent, Phillip; Noss, Richard – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2000
The perennial debate over whether mathematics should be taught by mathematicians or engineers looks increasingly anachronistic in the light of technological change. Suggests that it is more instructive to examine the potential of technology for changing the relationship between mathematicians and engineers, and for connecting their respective…
